Her work has been exhibited in galleries nationally and internationally. At the heart of her practice is an exploration of thread's dual nature — its apparent fragility and vulnerability alongside the remarkable strength it gains when sewn together. Using a sewing machine to create thread drawings on fabric that dissolves in water, she builds stitched lines that hold together through the crossing and interlocking of threads alone, resulting in works that seem on the verge of unraveling yet possess a quiet structural resilience. Amanda has taught a wide range of embroidery workshops and is passionate about helping students develop both technical skills and their own ways of observing and interpreting the natural world." } ] } ] ```
